Pulp, SASS#28319 Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 I took this today, it's a Texas Ladies Tress, a member of the orchid family of flowers. They pop up around here every spring. Apparently they have no idea of the purpose of the Red River. Oh well, I'll let these Texans pop up anytime. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v504/BlackPowderPulp/Surpriselily.jpg Also in the fall these pop up around the yard. It's a Red Spider Lily, a member of the Amaryllis group of flowers. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v504/BlackPowderPulp/Orchid2.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badger Mountain Charlie SASS #43172 Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 I get these little yellow flowers. I think the feller from the County called them dandelions. All over the place too. Been thinking of planting some tulips and dahlias this next season. Nice pictures Pulp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pulp, SASS#28319 Posted September 28, 2011 Author Share Posted September 28, 2011 Dandelions are pretty. And provide neighborhood kids with hours of entertainment, spreading the seeds to the wind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badger Mountain Charlie SASS #43172 Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 The squirrels keep planting nuts and seeds in my yard. I get a surprise ever so often. And the holly bushes go just wild. If I could find a commercial use for holly, I could be a lumber baron. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tequila Jim #14501 Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Wish the squirrels and scrub jays would consult me on where to plant the oaks, walnuts, and pecans. Regards, TJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read on another forum that holly makes a beautiful white revolver grip that yellows with age, just like ivory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
